(3) YA Lonely Elle meets her new neighbor Frank and immediately develops an intense crush. Her devotion to Frank is tested by the discovery that he is transgender. When Frank is critically injured in a car accident, Elle must decide what's important to her. Hyde enriches this coming-of-age story with a candid, compassionate treatment of transgender issues.
